2001 F-350 7.3 POWERSTROKE LARIAT CREW-CAB 2WD DUALLY

 

OKAY...

This is a privately owned, one owner local truck that was used to travel across the United States for sail yacht racing the first 5 years. After that it had a shell on and was used for the owners design firm. I purchased this truck in march with the intention of using it for pulling a 4 car hauler. I learned that I needed a heavier duty truck like an F-450 or F-550 to carry the weight the trailer was designed to pull. This truck was never used for that. Instead, I kept it for personal use and drove it on occasion. The reason for CarFax and AutoCheck stating 2 owners is due to me titling it in my company's name after I lost the original title. I would still consider it to be a true one owner vehicle.

Maintenance: Don't let the mileage scare you, this truck has always been religiously dealership serviced with NO expense spared when it came to recommended servicing. A driven diesel is a good thing... The CarFax shows a consistent service history since new and this truck runs, drives, shifts, as new. That is a bold statement to make, but this truck runs that good. It has absolutely NO KNOWN issues, and it is a very tight driving truck. I have been averaging 19.8MPG and if driven at 62mph, (unloaded), you can get close to 21MPG on the highway. It has a 100gallon external tank in the bed which you can switch to, or pump the fuel into the trucks tank. It has a very heavy duty gooseneck ball, that can be set flush, and I had a brand new Dexter trailer brake installed (never used). This truck has 100% all original paint that is in great condition for the age and mileage. There is a spot on the hood that has peeled off (see pic), and a small section peeling on the rain gutters on the roof of the cab (see pic). There is also a few dents around the body (see pic). There is NO rust, and the engine bay, drivetrain, rear end and completely bone dry of any leaks of any kind. The Michelin tires are all excellent and evenly worn. This truck drives perfectly straight with NO steering issues. The interior is very clean and nice, it has never been smoked in. There is some issues with the leather on the bottom of the front seats. The leather has cracked, but the foam and support are still excellent. what I was going to do was purchase eBay item #321123744767 and have these installed, after that the interior would be excellent. The dash, door panels, headliner and carpet are all in excellent condition. Everything is working well, including ice cold A/C.

This is a GREAT unmolested 7.3 lariat that will give many, many more miles and years to the new owner.

Message for CarFax, AutoCheck, Service History, and more pics.

YOU WILL NOT BE DISSIPOINTED!!

Next Ford Mustang to drop 400 pounds

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

The Ford Mustang is already the lightest of the current crop of muscle cars, at around 3,600 pounds for a GT coupe with the six-speed manual transmission. That's almost 260 pounds less than a Chevrolet Camaro SS and about 450 pounds less than a Dodge Challenger R/T, which means the Mustang has a pretty big advantage when it comes to handling, braking, accelerating and economy. More good news: The next Mustang will be even lighter.
According to a report from Edmunds, the sixth-generation Mustang, which is set to debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, will shed an additional 400 pounds of body fat. That 11-percent weight reduction will be thanks to lightweight materials, with a particular focus on using stronger, but less material in construction. Aluminum will feature heavily, but Edmunds' inside source warns that there is "nothing terribly exotic" coming to the original pony car.
The other big news is that the new Mustang will be smaller overall. It's going to be 15-inches shorter than the 188.5-inch Mustang on sale today, while it'll also be 6.5 inches narrower. Shorter overhangs, both in the front and rear, are also good signs for those that want an agile Mustang.

Feds looking into Ford Explorer exhaust leak complaints

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

There may be a burgeoning problem with exhaust leaks in the 2011-2014 model year Ford Explorer. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is examining multiple complaints of a gasoline smell in the cabin of these SUVs. However, the exact cause of this problem is still unknown.
"The agency is reviewing all available data and will take appropriate action as warranted," said a NHTSA spokesperson in an email to Automotive News. Owners seem to generally complain on the regulator's website of the smell entering the cabin through the air vents. At this time, the government organization has not yet opened an official investigation into the problem, though. When it does begin inspecting vehicles, NHTSA posts a detailed breakdown of its public data online.
Similar problems have been reported about the Explorer in the past, though. In 2013, Ford issued a recall for the 2013 model year of the SUV due to a fuel leak that could cause drivers to smell a gasoline odor and repaired them again later for another possible leak. In response to Autoblog's questions, Ford responded via email: "We are not aware of a NHTSA investigation. We are currently reviewing the case and in the event that any action is required, we will address it promptly."
